Imap with a 100 message limit (like mail for iphone)

hi,
i'd like to know if there is a way to ask apple mail to only download/display the last 50 or 100 emails of an IMAP inbox.
this is the way apple mail works for iphone...
can i configure it this way on mac OS X leopard ?
thanks for your help

You can set it up to not download any message until you click on one in the list to read. This is done in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Advanced by selecting to not keep copies of messages and their attachments, or can limit it to keep with the attachments. However, Search of the entire message depends upon having these temporary copies on board you Mac.

IMAP message dates on Mail for iPhone

Hello,
I just moved my IMAP folders to a new server and Mail.app now shows all message received on the date I moved the folders rather than the actual dates they where originaly received.
Basically, I understand the "Received Date" is the time the file was written to the server's file system, so Mail's behavior is normal as all messages have just been copied to the server.
The question is: How can I change Mail to show the "DateSent" taken from each message's header? This works fine on Mac, but it doesn't seem possible on iPhone...
Or alternatively, do you know of a script that will change the date of each IMAP message on my server's file system to be the one of the header's date field?
thanks a lot

Further to my earlier post today. Deleting my BT a/c in mac mail yesterday and adding back as new A/C did not work and both my A/c and my wife's continued to time out. I finally went into the a/c settings once more, deleted my password and re-entered it and saved the change. Surprise surprise, this re-established imap contact and downloaded all my folder contents once more. Not only that, it restarted my wife's e-mail in her logiin without the need to delete and re-enter her separate E-mail password. My password is the master for using BT Broadband and somewhere this had got lost/ corrupted in requesting imap mail to our iMac. I hope this is a permanent solution and hope this helps others whose imap service fails.

Like voice mail for iPhone, when are we going to be able to leave Face Time messages when a called party doesn't answer. Seems logical...

I wonder where the "suggestion box" is at Apple?

Charger with serial number A1300 is not working for iPhone 5, is it?

I have an issue charging my new iPhone 5. I bought an extra cable - and they seem to both work when pluggin it into any computer. But one of my chargers will not work with it - but it works if I plugin my iPhone 4. How come? I noticed that the serial number is A1300. I borrowed one from a friend with serial number A1400 - and that worked (with the same cable).
can I conclude that chargers with serial numbers A1300 don't work for iPhone 5?

Any iPhone or iPad charger should work with the iPhone 5. There is something wrong with your charger. If it is the one that came with the phone it is covered by the phone's warrantee.

There is any app like tasker for iphone thanks

there is any app like tasker for iphone, thanks?

No. Not based on what I can see from the Tasker web page. I wouldn't hurt to search the app store though. Some functionality may be available from apps there.

What is your best messaging choice? Mail for Excha...

Hi,
I tried Mail for Exchange, its very good but has some weaknesses. The same applies to Nokia Messaging.
Which do you prefere? Or do you prefere third party applications?
Or may be another phone brand?
Thanks!

It depends. When I had my E51, I used Nokia BBC. But that only works if your wireless account has blackberry plan (as all data goes through blackberry.net, so a general data plan won't work). Even with Always On, I was able to squeeze out 5 days on a full battery charge. But when I got my N97, I wiped out the E51 and installed MfE on it to test the software in preparation for my N97. At best, with Always On, the E51 lasted about 3 days. Mind you, the E51 only had data and BB plans, no voice.
I've tried the beta Nokia Messaging app (email.nokia.com) that can "sync" all kinds of public POP/IMAP mail on my previous N95, and I was not at all impressed. It hardly ever syncs correctly. When it states that it is up to date, I see the email were old. Gave that up after trying it out for a couple months.
I still use the built-in Messaging app that comes with S60. However, for the longest time, I couldn't use it with netaddress.com or usa.net (same company) via IMAP. You may remember that netaddress.com was the original free email service dating back to early 90's. Starting with my 6620 all the way through my N95, the built-in Nokia Messaging app just can't connect to netaddress.com's IMAP server, even though other mobile devices, my desktop Outlook, and Outlook Express can. Go figure. Because of this, I was forced to switch to Google finally as my mail provider.
But now, GMail has a weird implementation of its mail system, as this is not Nokia's fault. Whether on the built-in Nokia Messaging app or with Outlook, when connecting to GMail's IMAP, your delete action does not get obeyed by Google. You have to move the message to the Trash folder. Quite annoying.
For me, I use my N97's MfE to connect to my corporate mail, the built-in Nokia Messaging app to retrieve my GMail at intervals (works great) via IMAP, and Google's S60 GMail app. Why would I want to use Google's native app? At home I download all my mail via POP on my Outlook and archive them in the personal folder. But once in a while I have to dig up some old email. So I use Google's native app to search my "All Mail" folder whenever I need to find something. Otherwise, it's just MfE and the built-in Messaging. Works like a charm. Free is always good in my books.
(If only Nokia can tell me what Exchange security policies MfE on S60 v5 can/cannot support... /discussions/board/message?board.id=messaging&thread.id=19037)

Is there a character limit in Mail on iPhone or iPad?

When composing an email message, in the Mail app, is there a character limit in the body of the email on an iPhone or iPad?

I did lots of testing last night on this issue.
It's quite repeatable. I tested it on LV 7.1 (OSX) and the bug is there, but LV 8b120 works OK.
I have attached the LLB that I sent to tech support.
Here is the report I sent:
Problem Description :
Apparently there is a character limit on ENUM
items.
If I add two characters to any item in this enum,
LabVIEW will CRASH when I apply changes. The
crash occurs without actually RUNNING the
program.
I have tested on LabVIEW 7.0 (Win2000) and
7.1.1 (OS X). Both exhibit the same behavior.
LabVIEW 8.0 b120 (OS X) does NOT crash - it
works correctly.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1... Open the library and keep HDT SORT
CHANNELS INTO PAGES.vi open.
2... Open HDT UNITS CONTROL.ctl in the library.
3... Add two or more characters to any item in
the ENUM.
4... APPLY CHANGES
5... Watch LabVIEW crash.
It certainly leads to bizarre behavior - If you remove the UNITS control from the HDT DISPLAY UNITS vi while you change the typedef, there is no crash. But as soon as you put it back and wire it to the connector, ALL the terminals turn to (void).

What's with the new edition of Pages using Maverick? Google rejects the files with the following message attached "The reason for the problem: 5.3.0 - Other mail system problem 552-'5.7.0 This message was blocked as its content security threat?

I recently upgraded both Pages 09 (I believe) and went to OSX 10.9 Maverick .... now I am unable to send a pages document to a friend on gmail. Google rejects the message and attachment with the following explanation -
The reason for the problem:
5.3.0 - Other mail system problem 552-'5.7.0 This message was blocked because its content presents a potential\n5.7.0 security issue.

Same Problem here
IWORKS 09 pages, keynote, numbers does not send in MAIL (mac) because of "This message was blocked because its content presents a potentialsecurity issue"
its a problem not only on GMAIL but also Live, Hotmail, Yahoo, and other services...
The problem is that gmail and others haved yet accepted the latest iworks 09 files. its a problem that apple can ask then to fix but its up to the gmail and others to fix it.
Solution!!!:
1 - Send it by exporting to office files
2 - Saving the files as old iwork documents
3 - Command P and save as PDF
4 - Save in icloud and send the URL
So you can still send them but have to take a bit more of your time
i hope you understand my english is not optimal
And if you have any questions feel free to ask me

Intermittent problems with internet, text messaging and e mail

hi guys
can anyone tell me if they have similar problems, where i have to reboot my phone to enable the above to work? also i think i have sent messages but friends do not appear to be recieving them,
many thanks
rachellordy

I am having similar problems. I called my service provider and they say it's not a problem with their network.
Yesterday I was only able to send bbms and post on Twitter intermittently. Today, I can't do either at all. For some reason texting and calling seems to work fine, but none of the social apps do. Please help!

Problems with supposed $100 old phone trade-in on iPhone

Folks in-store made a big deal about this. 12 days later, and 4 phone calls to Verizon Wireless and I still haven't gotten the magic e-mail that I need to get to be eligible for the $100. Either incredibly inept execution, or a scam.

It doesn't have to be incompetence or malevolence. As was stated before, the company didn't get to the position they did in the market by scamming people. Just as much, there isn't enough information to determine that it was "inept execution." Consider: two thousand people out of the 93+ million customers use the promotion and out of that group, one hundred have a problem. This equates to 5% of the partakers, which would hardly mean anything inept. The question, though, would inevitably be "how did I come up with the numbers to show that it is not 'inept execution'?" That is my point. In order to leave the available possibilities at either malevolence or incompetence, too much would need to be known beforehand and this knowledge can only be acquired on the inside, I'm sure. I don't think anyone here has that knowledge, but the small amount of individuals admitting to issues would validate the suspicion that it is not due to "inept execution," but instead due to the old bit of wisdom: things happen.

Anyone getting message "cannot get mail" on iphone using yahoo?

Couple of days back when I tried to log into my yahoo.com mail account, I received a full screen message that yahoo.com thought my password was compromised and requested I supply a new one. I didn't look at the url to see if it was from yahoo.com or trustworthy (darn it!). I decided not to change my password and was allowed to go on to yahoo.com mail. Then later when I tried to check my yahoo.com email from my iphone4, I got this message that "cannot get mail" and my password must be incorrect. I went back to the yahoo.com mail on my Macbook and, after getting the same warning message as before, I did enter a new password. Then tried to get into yahoo email on the iphone4 and succeeded. The next day, I tried to get into yahoo email from the iphone4 and I got the darn "cannot get mail" message on the iphone4. I've tried deleting the yahoo mail account on the iphone4 and reinstalling it, but no luck. Still get same message! Anyone know what to do?

Thanks
So how can I fix my iPhone Yahoo email?

Husband with iCloud account and alias e-mail for wife. Now wife got her own account and wants her e-mail address.

Hi there,
i have an icloud account and punt an alias for my wife in there. ([email protected])
Now she got her own iPhone and her own iCloud accout and would like to have her e-mail address on her own icloud account.
I have deleted the alias but icloud still says the address is in use. Is there any way for her to get her own e-mail address on her account?! ([email protected])
Do we just have to wait until icloud recognize that this address isn't an alias anymore?
Ohh my god! I need help...please
Regards
Patrick

I'm afraid that you can't use this address. Aliases cannot be moved to another account, nor turned into a full account, and once deleted cannot be reactivated. Sorry; but you will have to create a new address when you open a new iCloud account for her.
